Bent Tree Apartments

Did a tour of the property, liked what I saw, applied right on the spot. Unlike EVERY place I toured, to apply I had to pay a $500 deposit with a $50 application fee. No exaggeration, I was turned down within 2 mins! They instantly took those funds out of my acct. One week later and I still do not have my $500 back. Aimco management company conveniently does not have the info on their website on how to contact them. I just found a post where someone went thru the same thing last year. HOW DO YOU TAKE MONEY INSTANTLY, REJECT THEM AND THEN NOT REFUND THE REFUNDABLE MONEY??? DO NOT APPLY UNLESS YOU HAVE $500 TO THROW AWAY!!!!

I have been living in this community for 3+ years and the only reason I decided to stay this long was because of the convenience of having 28, 29 and 66 so close. I had a visitor last month and parked the car on the suggested visitor parking but the car was towed within 6 hours and the leasing office just felt sorry for the car being towed. I have seen the same cars parked in the same space all year long (2018) and i am ready to take some pictures every day and post them so the leasing office can see how is it that these people get away with it.

DO NOT MOVE HERE! When i moved in my apartment had a gnat infestation, was not cleaned, had pee in the toilet, vents painted closed, and floorboards not glued down. For all of this, they offered me $30 in concessions and didn't even send pest control for over a week. Months later I broke my lease once I was able to leave (i would have left earlier if i was able due to the condition) they charged me $5,000 to break my lease even though a new tenet was going to move in 2 weeks after me. So they faced no losses and are still making me pay the fee regardless of my experience at the property. I recommend to move literally anywhere else but save yourself the trouble and DO NOT LIVE HERE. Update: I reached out as suggested in the owners comment below and now haven't heard back in two weeks. I was really hoping to come to a resolution but even the management company has proven unwilling to help. They also changed the comment they originally left which was apologetic to a generic response.

My partner and I lived at Bent Tree Apts from Mar '22 to Jan '23. We terminated our lease early because it was that bad, so bad that we paid hefty termination fees to get out. Tip: get a lawyer to look at your lease before signing anything! Before our move-in day, we were unable to get in contact with the leasing agent that coordinated our move-in. We later found out that our leasing agent left the company and forgot to transfer our information to another agent. Our move-in day was also on a Sunday so the leasing office would have been closed. Good thing we kept bugging them about it--otherwise, I'm convinced we would have never gotten our passcodes while still getting charged rent. Within the first week, we noticed evidence of previous water damage all over the apartment unit (e.g raised flooring, cracked walls, water stains). There was also an ant infestation that came from outside our first floor unit; we had to seal the trim with tape to keep them out. Another issue is that there is a shortage of parking spaces. We paid for general parking spaces every month but were not guaranteed spots after 7pm. A few months later, our ceiling flooded with sewage water near the HVAC vents on two separate occasions. This explained where the signs of prior water damage throughout the apartment unit came from. Another big concern was that the maintenance team entered our unit for an unannounced VA state inspection. The maintenance team told us at the door that they knew some units did not receive a notice, but they still apparently needed to enter that day anyway. Luckily, we happened to be home at the time and were able to calm down our anxious dog. If this is a routine state inspection, shouldn't they have known about this for a while? Why couldn't the maintenance team have rescheduled the inspection when they realized that some units were not notified? We felt very strongly about this because we had a lot of concerns about our rescue dog being home alone with any strangers in the unit. When we brought this concern to the attention of the leasing office, they told us that all units were absolutely notified ahead of time. It took a lot of persistence on our end before they finally checked their e-mail distribution list and realized that some units indeed did not receive the notice. However, instead of apologizing for the gaslighting, they shoved this under the rug and promised not to do this again. Except it did. Needless to say, we lost all trust in Bent Tree after this experience. There was a drain in the hot water heater closet that collected the runoff from the HVAC of all the units above us and it constantly dripped with water. A sewage smell appeared every 2 weeks and it permeated throughout the entire apartment. There were random fees added to our invoice every month; however, we don't know where that money went to as they never did any landscaping in the Fall or Winter and only raked the leaves twice the entire season. The complex was hideous with all the leaves that would rot in the grass and encourage snakes to hide underneath (and yes, we did see snakes). Bent Tree's online portal is also a mess and you can't track what you're being charged for as the charges are not listed in any sequential order. As others have mentioned, we received an automated message that our batteries for our door lock were dying and scheduled a date and time to have replacements dropped off. They were never delivered and we had to buy our own out of fear of getting locked out of our apartment. We confirmed later with the leasing office that their AI assistant rarely works. Maybe they have it figured out by now, but I wouldn't get my hopes up on it. Overall, terrible experience that negatively impacted our quality of life. You could rent a better apartment at a similar price point that comes with fewer headaches.

Stay away from this apartment complex! I was treated wonderfully when viewing the apartments, however after not being able to move forward I was informed that the refund process ($600) would begin and I would be refunded in the next 48-72 hours. It has been almost 2 weeks! After I realized earlier this week that my money had not been refunded, my friend checked our application status online, and it was still showing In review. After calling the office I was very rudely spoken to and the woman seemed baffled as to why I was online checking the status, of course because I had not received my money! She then informed me that the process had not even been started and that i would have to wait another 48-72 hours. Unacceptable!I have even contacted corporate and will make every effort to make this situation known, and I will also be contacting my bank to have every dime returned. Stay AWAY.

No charging stations are installed here.

for real, even one star is too much. I wish I was able to use all bad words to describe how awful the new management is.unfortunately, I continued my contract with them and then they started to renew the community.the answer to all the sounds and dirtiness is we try to make comfort. but seriously?! the parking lot is like a jungle if you get first you are the winner. people use their motorcycle as something to hold and reserve their spot. if your neighbor walk in the upper level you definitely will hear that and if the one living in under you, be sure that you will hear the sound of music.and about the people that work in the leasing office, they are intelligently ignoring your request and for the same problem, you should contact them more than 6 times in minimum. I visited the people in the leasing office more than 17 times which nobody can believe that and I ended up that I should call the police for my problem.when you ask for something most of the times you hear these "we don't know" "we will update you" " we will take care of that" but the result is that you should see them again.and the good points are less than the bad points. if the rent is cheap in somehow(that you will be faced by a lot of hidden fees), doesn't mean that you live in peace and comfort. be smarter. don't? be like me :)))

Have lived in this community 4+ years and I made the mistake to renew my lease for one more year and I just found out that I have to pay $15 a month for every car parking and they argued that they sent me a letter which I never received. The community its smoke free however my neighbors smoke every day and if I turn my AC off the entire apartmen smells awful and the leasing office managers are not doing anything. also $15 a month for trash removal and I have to walk to the dumpster and put the trash away. $5+ monthly fee for the company that generates an Online monthly bill. DO not move to this community unless you want to pay extra money. I also have put up a request 4 months ago because there is a water leak in both bathrooms and the floors and drywall is damage and the maintenance crew never shows up.

So when we first moved in we had BED BUGS!!!! We had never had them before and when we brought it to attention they did nothing about it. A few months later management changed and things got worse! They never listened to their residents. There fees are outrageous. They have fees for parking, packages, trash ( yes, trash that you have to carry to the dump).Dont waste your time living here. No one was ever helpful here.

My family and I have lived here for over 1 year. We enjoy the pool and playground areas. However, I feel the bad points definitely outweigh the good points. Please see below:Pros:-The rent is a lot cheaper than comparable apartment complexes-The location is ideal for shopping, restaurants, and commutingCons:-Aimco staff is rather unresponsive and some of them are quite rude.-Maintenance staff are inexperienced and incapable. Last summer our apartment flooded multiple times despite constant requests to the maintenance team. The cause was the unwillingness to clean the gutters periodically. This caused us to live in a hotel for 3 nights and $500 of damage to our belongings.-New playground equipment is cheap and dangerous. The new playground equipment has only been installed for about 6 months and I have already observed multiple injuries.-I have observed multiple residents smoking on the apartment grounds despite this being against the lease. The apartment staff are not enforcing the rules.-On 4/21/2019 there was a multiple unit fire that killed one resident. This was fire spread quickly to at least three units before it was under control despite being located directly next to a fire station. It is clear that this apartment complex is a fire hazard.https://www.fox5dc.com/amp/news/local-news/deadly-fairfax-county-apartment-fire

In my 3 months being here I got towed three times and not a single one was my fault and instead of paying for it they made me pay out of pocket and they just reduced the amount from my rent so if I had no money to cover it my car would be sitting with no fault of my own and now they cut off my electricity, again to no fault of my own and we lost about $500 in food and milk that was breast milk that was pumped and have had no power for three days and renters insurance here does not want to cover it and again to no fault of my own and we still don't have electricity and don't know when it will be turned on and all the leasing office has said is I'm sorry I know that sucks. I would give 0 stars if possible parking sucks 90% of times my visitors have to park across the street my spot is far from my apartment and they add so many charges they don't talk about I'm the beginning suck at giving mail keys the only good thing here is the maintenance team which I imagine is from the amount of practice they get again I do not recommend this place I'm the slightest.

It's like living in the middle of a construction zone in DC. I'm a full time college student and studying here during the day since the new management took over is nearly impossible. I have to leave my apartment and study at the library down the street to get anything done. I feel sorry for anyone who works night shift living here!! But it's okay, we will be moving out next month!

I've waited a while to leave my review because I wanted to offer the new management company time to settle into the groove of taking on a large complex. That said, while I can appreciate the effort they are making to better the community, the disturbance it's causing to residents is completely disrespectful. First let's start with the fact that it took them weeks, probably about 6, to resurface the parking lots, and we aren't talking about a complete grade and lay new asphalt, just a simple cosmetic surface fix and seal. This impeded parking for the entire duration. Then, they decided to take electricity and water to the existing dog park, great plan, terrible execution. Unfortunately for me, the trench digging for this was 20 feet from my apartment and they were here for hours, until past 7pm to be exact. I'm not talking about men and shovels, actual ground diggers and burrow drills.... until past dinner time. When I asked the leasing office how late they were going to be there they actually asked "why is it disturbing you?" .... pretty sure I didn't go up there to for the hell of it.... moving on, today, the last straw to my review standstill, I'm home and I hear a very loud thud from upstairs and I think to myself, "I hope someone didn't fall" mute the tv, hear some faint movement, go about my binge watching and I hear more loud thuds. At this point I'm thinking someone has fallen and they are struggling to get back up, go outside look up and find that my neighbors have moved out, the windows are wide open and what I am hearing is the contractors "fixing the apartment" at 5pm are carrying materials into the apartment and literally dropping them on the floor. I watched it happen. I've lived here for a few years, other than the occasional trip or fall I never hear my upstairs neighbors, but these people were dropping boxes of stuff and shaking the entire ceiling. I do what any annoyed person does, go to the leasing office. I'm always greeted with hostility for absolutely no reason, I prepared myself for that and was told "it will just be an inconvenience while they renovate" I'm sorry, what? That is what you have to say to a current paying resident? Rude, disrespectful and completely uncaring. If you want people to stay, I assume retention would be high on the priority list, but not for this new company. They don't care about anything. Don't bother moving in.And to any manager that actually takes the time to read this far, don't give me a bogus reply just to make it seem like you're engaging on reviews. There is nothing you can do about the way residents are treated by the staff at the office unless you fire them and bring in actual people with customer service skills.

Probably the worst ran apartments I have ever lived in. As touched upon by other commenters, you will be walking from giant or an adjacent neighborhood if you get home a little later. Management will never respond to you about anything. Th floors are uneven, I had a burner not even connected to anything. This place is absolute trash. Please do not move here!!

The first day I moved in, the apartment had not been properly prepared. After being unable to move my belongings in on the first day, the maintenance crew (which is the worst maintenance crew I've ever dealt with) didn't properly replace essential objects in the apartment, and left the floors absolutely disgusting. Then after coming home with groceries, I found out the apartment is infested with bugs, and that pest control had never been to the apartment. After talking to management they said a pest control worker was sent, but I came home to roaches on the invoice itself, and still a massive amount of bugs. To ice the cake, less than a week into moving in, the apartment flooded and I wasn't able to get "24 hour emergency maintenance" to my place for an hour. Then the worker was unable to speak enough English to instruct me on where to go for the night, and the receptionist also had no idea what to do. This complex is a nightmare.

You're done being treated like "family" as soon as you sign your lease. The leasing office is severely understaffed, they never answer their phones when you call, and when they do they hang up on you. My partner slid on a water heater cover and fell in when it was raining. We told management, they did nothing but ask if he was fine! What if it were a kid? Worst attitudes ever from leasing agents, as if your problems are your own fault. QUICK to bill you for leaving anything outside your front door. Take your money ANYWHERE else. This is their job, they don't care that it affects your livelihood.You pay for parking, but they will tow you no matter what! But once they tow you the leasing office cannot help you, even though you had your paid parking pass on the top right of your windshield. Sounds great right? Their package delivery system is a joke. You pay $50 annually for a locker system, and they don't even notify you when your package was delivered. You have to go into the LuxerOne app and talk to their customer service. Leasing office will tell you there's nothing they can do. I had my package stolen recently, the leasing office asked if I had called the police already (sounded like sarcasm). It was a $4 package, I don't need the police, I need the protection and surveillance I was promised when I bought a locker space. Truly counting down the days until I leave this disgusting establishment. The manager's name is Sonia, and she is far from a decent manager. The property manager's name is Andrea, and she's even worse. Need a maintenance request? By your third submission, they should be on the way. Maintenance men are no issue, in fact very thorough and quick, perhaps the nicest thing about this place.Leasing office is truly ran by grown women who act like high-schoolers. God forbid you're passionate and upset about your problem, they'll pretend they never received your voicemail. But once you go into the leasing office physically they act like that had never happened. AVOID this community like the plague. I'm counting down the days until I get to leave this horrible place.

Bad management. Constantly changing staff. You request maint service, they dont come out for 2 weeks. And they keep sending you email saying it was completed for things you didnt even request. They ask for 60 days notice but they dont even have the paperwork ready with renewal info so you can decide if you want to move or not. People in the leasing office are rude. You tell them, you changed personal information at least 3 times because they don't change anything and yet they still have it wrong.

If I could give 0 stars I would. I wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy. It's an absolute scam.

Writing this review while I'm parked at Bella Pizza because I do not have anywhere to park. Even though there are 20 reserve parking spots open , that nobody reserved....I must say, this is the dumbest thing I have ever seen

Actually Bent Tree Apartment looks great when you see it from outside. but the service is too bad. and the maintenance team they do not care. and I have very bad experience started from the first day I moved in. the apartment was very dirty and need a lot of maintenance. reported and they fix some of what we told them after many weeks. and I had to call them and run to the office many times. and I had to take pictures to show them and to have them sign and date on the pictures. and all that just to try to push them to do their work. Complained about the electricity bill which comes over $240 every month while the normal average up to $120 they told us to contact Dominion VA power first. but there was nothing wrong with Dominion. then I had to report it again with their office and now I have been waiting over two weeks for their response and to send their maintenance team. They tell you that their policy to fix whatever in your apartment within 48 hours from the time you report the issue. Do not believe that because they take weeks. The windows are too old and has too many problems. if you ask them to replace just a light bulb in your apartment, it takes days to be replaced. They tell you that their policy to fix whatever in your apartment within 48 hours from the time you report the issue. Do not believe that because they take weeks. and they have very poor customer service

The new management company is just awful. I do not feel welcome here

They put in new lockers for package drop off and they lost my package. Do not trust this company. Very unprofessional. Don't live here. Parking is still a nightmare.

Moving to this community was the worse mistake that I have made this year. If you are plaining to move to this community, please visit other apartments in the area because you will struggle to adapt to this environment. You have to pay for trash removal and they don't even want to take your recycle so you have to walk to the dumpster (what is the point to pay extra money) parking spaces are to narrow and the leasing office don't give you extra permit if you have visitors, parking lot is too dark at night, also people steal your stuff from your balcony and the office is not doing anything to stop this issues. I have to call maintenance to repair the sink, laundry, refrigerator, and the floor every month because they do not want to replace them with a new one. Also be aware that they use your balcony outlet when they work outside and they do not help you with the electricity bill. Even more, landscaping crews come too early and you can hear them talking and screaming because the windows are too old and the glass is thin. If you are leaving on the ground floor you can hear every single step from your upstair neighbor. They make you pay for water and other communities in the area don't charge for water and the list goes on and on. I am looking forward to leave this disgusting community.

The location is great. Everything else sucks.

This apartment sucks. All the spots out front are reserved. You have to walk a mile to get to your apartment. It takes forever to bring in groceries. And they run their tow truck night and day - god forbid if you're in a hurry and accidentally park in a reserved spot, you have to uber 15 miles away to pick it up. Would not recommend living here. Also, they make you pay on the last day of every month, or make you pay a $160 late fee. Most apartment complexes give you until the 5th day. But when you serve a lower societal class, you shouldn't expect them to have their check in on the last day of the month. Heaven forbid. This has gotten out of control. Also:-place infested with bugs/rats-trash was everyday pickup, now 2x/ week, which as residents are required to pay and don't pick up as often. Which makes it smell-changed the payment date from 5th of the next month, to last day of current month without explicitly telling you when you renewed lease-changed management companies 2x in a year-disorganization if staff, when I resigned lease, it literally took me 10x to get changed.

Just I can tell you horrible management and shoddy apartments. You can hear neighbors voices even the siphon. You wont find a parking spot after 7 pm.if you are willing to wait a month to unclog your clogged sink, welcome to Bent Tree Apartments. I m sure you will not do it.

(Sorry this is lengthy) I am a fairly new resident I moved in march 1 of last year(2022). My lease ends June 5 and fortunately, I will not be renting with this community after my lease ends. First bad experience I had, before I moved in. I obviously had a normal tour where I was asked if I had a dog or plan on getting a dog I said no because that was my honest answer but living on the East Coast by myself, I needed a companion, so I did end up getting a dog, a German Shepherd. when I went in to register him, that is when I noticed that they had restricted dog breeds (as when I did the tour she did NOT tell me that they had restricted breeds and to keep that in mind if I ever did want to get one) and I had already registered him as an emotional support animal which he is and let me tell you this process took close to two months to get approval, a very unnecessary amount of time. after I was working with the then manager, who has now been promoted, she told me that the female who took me on a tour told me they were restricted breads after I continuously told her that no one informed me of that, but they made me feel like I was wrong and they're always right. Thankfully after having to go has doctors appointments five times to fill out forms and get doctors notes. I was approved to have my dog with me. my second negative interaction was, yes the electronic door lock. I had gotten a notification on the app that the battery was running out and they did an auto service ticket. I had exchanged emails and text. We agreed on a Tuesday while I was going to be here for them to come and drop off batteries and that Tuesday came and they never stopped by then a few days later I was coming home after work, and my lock was making an ongoing humming noise. Come to find out the battery had died and I was unable to get in my apartment through the front door. I made another ticket in and this time they did come to drop off the batteries, while I was not home and when I did come home, I came to find that the front door was literally cracked open and the batteries look like they just opened the door, threw the batteries in the front walkway, and walked away. They were scattered in my front walkway. It's just overall very disappointing community. You pay fees for trash, but you have to walk your own trash to the dumpster so what is the fee for? Overall, I would not recommend this community at all. If you need a community in the area, lakeside apartments (yes different company too) are literally amazing. No trash fees, they give you trash bins on move in date, open parking with no fees, if you have a service dog or esa, mine got approved in three hours and all they needed was for me to fill out a form and the form I had used here at Bent tree and my pup got approved for my move in date. Would totally recommend lakeside apartments over Bent tree unfortunately.

I don't live here, nor do I plan on renting here. If you're going to overcharge for apartments, make sure to update the whole unit. Not just the light fixtures, floors, and kitchen blacksplash. Location? I've looked at apartments two steps away from Dunn Loring the same price, and the second bathroom wasnt the size of a shoebox. Yea they're under new management. The person we spoke to seemed nice. But I didn't plan on speaking for an hour before actually viewing the apartment, I knew something seemed up when he was speaking so highly of the complex. Sadly the apartment didn't match his words. Thanks but no thanks. I normally don't write reviews, nor did I need to. But I felt like sharing my experience.

Don't move here Don't waste your time and your money here The service is too bad ,they just waste your time You can't go to sleep when your upstair neighbor want to walk or get shower cause of sound Extra charge for nothing Even get charged for parking spot , can't find any spot to park Your car will be towed even you park in your spot

Run and DON'T look back. If you want terrible customer service, rude members, then this is the place for you!! They never answer the phone, or emails. Parking is atrocious, prepare to walk a whole lot back to your building after 8 pm. This place is a living nightmare. And I can bet that some automated message will be posted in the response to my review! We always get it. Everyone we post a bad review on Facebook, google, yelp. It's the same sad response. Hey bent tree, aimco, save yourself the "time" of copying and pasting a halfass response.Absolute lie, it's been a MONTH since they met with her. When you guys had that bbq. That was last week? No.

Parking here is a HUGE problem. I've lived here nearly 6 months and every time I get home after 9 pm I have to drive to the other side of the apartment complex to park (a 15 minute walk to my building). If I arrive after midnight I have to pray that someone is leaving because I have literally not found parking multiple times (to the point that I literally go home, PARK, then UBER places cause finding parking is so insanely frustrating after a long shift - I work two jobs a 9-5 job and as a bartender). Maintenance is also a huge problem. My heater broke in December and I put in a ticket and went to the office (because otherwise it would have taken weeks for them to come out, and frankly I am not keen on letting my apartment stay at the 20 degrees Fahrenheit my thermometer was reading). The first maintanence team told me that the heating system was broken and they couldn't replace the entire thing (as itll be too expensive and they'd need administrative permission) after imploring them to fix it they explained they didn't think they'd be allowed to but they left to ask. After a couple hours a second team came back and closed all the vents forcing the little heat in the system into my bedroom and told me 'they were done and fixed the problem'. Obviously this isn't a fix, the first team came back after the second left and explained they weren't allowed to replace the system because itll take too long and itll be expensive. Luckily this winter wasn't terrible, but to this day my heating system is pretty wonky and I have to blast it to have a decent temperature in my apartment (electric bill due to this went from 80/mo it was in November to 200/mo just to get my apartment at a constant 67 degrees). Some maintenance workers try really hard to fix problems (notably Percy and Miguel) but others seem to have given up at this point and don't really care, so be wary. The grounds are pretty dirty due to their lack of trash containers, and their "valet trash collection service" that is mandatory sucks. You also will constantly get spammed by random newsletters and I assume companies that have a partnership with Bent Tree. I suspect that pests will become a problem once spring warms up more. My apartment is very clean (I clean-mop-sweep everyday) but when I was sweeping my floor yesterday I noticed three ants scampering around as well as a beetle. Though this is the first and only times I've seen pests inside the apartment, I assume that the fact a beetle was able to make it in when I keep the apartment locked down and clean constantly (never open windows or doors unless I am walking in and out) shows that pests will begin to be a problem. As noted by someone else Bent Tree does has numerous fees and honestly if they can get away with charging you more I wouldn't be surprised. The apartments though cheap are poorly made (I used to be a home remodeler and I noted that my 'hard wood floors' were already peeling after being installed 'a month before I moved in' and that the double windows are ancient and poorly installed). When my neighbors upstairs were moving in the ceiling shook and I had a lot of white dust and paint on my furniture which I had to clean up. Honestly I wouldn't recommend anyone to live here unless they are on a budget and can put up with all of this. I will probably be moving out as soon as my lease terminates because frankly I would rather commute from Sterling to my jobs in Chantilly than to put up with this place again.

The layouts are good but you can easily hear the people above or below you. Also don't bother cleaning on your way out because they'll hit you with a bill anyway. I Mr. Cleaned the hell out of my apartment and they still hit me with a $200 cleaning fee

As I look at the google reviews... I see that I am not the only one who feels that AIMCO.... ESPECIALLY THE DISCONNECTED CEO.. places profit BEFORE the resIdents' comfort, security.... AND SAFETY. The minion named ""George" (I am actually laughing right now because he has the perfect 'minion name'), seems to have some kind of response to every critisism.... and, yet, never takes responsibility. The CEO, who is hanging out with his republican rich friends on his yacht right now.... and couldn't care less about what is actually HAPPENING TO REAL PEOPLE... who HE SHOULD CARE ABOUT (FOR BUSINESS PURPOSES)..... trained "George" well. "Avoid those regular humans AND DON'T get caught up with THEIR ISSUES, GEORGE, while taking their money. Write a bunch of comments that make us look like we care! While making passive aggressive remarks! I NEED MORE MONEY! Good job George. Here is your bonus thst comes straight from the mouths of our tenants children!!!!" CHECK OUT ALL REVIEWS ON ALL WEBSITES before you sign a lease with Bent Tree! The only reason that I don't post this review on other websites is because I am aware of the lack of ethics going on with the management company... and, I need to maintain housing. I fear "retribution" that will actually be "retaliation" if the CEO and his minions find out who it is that spoke.

I lived in the first floor and it was a struggle every night to get sleep. The floor above us is EXTREMELY CREAKY and the upstairs neighbor moves ALL NIGHT LONG. We hear everything. Not to mention, the people outside are loud at night. I'm honestly shocked to see reviews above two stars. Do not live here...

I'm wondering if there is any rating less than one star?!

During my time at Bent Tree the quality of life has gone down significantly.1st - The parking situation currently is a disaster. All but a couple dozen spots are assigned parking. This parking might not be anywhere near your apartment and is a separate fee. The little visitor parking that exists is functionally non-existant since it's always full with residents cars. You will not be able to have anyone visit without risking their being towed.2nd - The removal of several amenities to make room for additional parking.3rd - A lack of enforcement of the non-smoking policies. These policies are not effectively enforced and people openly smoke on their balconies and parking lots.4th - Their "newly renovated apartments" had many, many issues with the installation of doors, windows, and appliances incorrectly or sloppily. While maintenance did correct these issues they clearly went with a bottom of the barrel contractor for these renovations and did little to no follow up to make sure things were done properly.Do not rent here, it is not as advertised.

I HAVE NOT SLEPT IN MONTHS NOR CAN AFFORD TO PAY THEM TO BREAK MY LEASE. This has added to my depression and currently in therapy ( not lying ) I had to live through construction for months !!! and I mean hard-core you cannot even talk on your phone, kind of construction where it wasn't livable and nails where were flying through my wall. ( they fixed it but still). This was when they were changing the color on the outside of the apartment complex. Several neighbors and I were talking about damages me to our walls and items, thankfully, my items werent ruined, like some of my neighbors. It's was a total utter nightmare. They worked past 8pm sometimes too! Like you got lucky if you were able to sleep. the floorboards are very thin. You can hear every step your neighbors take. This is beyond hearing door slamming and thumping, and a little stomping that's normal in apartment complexes. I'm talking about hard-core TV, and mirrors are shaking. Very earthquake feeling. When I have guest over, they always comment on how I'm able to live here. I take baby steps when I walk in my own place because I'm afraid I might disturb the people below me so I don't comfortably live here. On top of the floorboards already being very weak, I've experienced water damage from a neighbor above me, who I found out, died in her apartment, well, when the cleaners were cleaning, water started pouring on my bedroom floor from my ceiling, they fixed it however, there's still a water stain that I can still see and that was about a year ago from now with that being said, there are squeaky ( nails on a chalkboard) squeaky in my room above me and my upstairs neighbors step on those parts for long periods of time. So I haven't had good sleep here in months. If I were in property management, I would literally consider letting someone out of their rent for the excessive noise, it's not regular apartment noise. As a human I'd be upset that I collect money from someone who can't sleep in their own home. I am forced to sleep in my car some nights when the sounds are that bad or crash at a friend that I can find all while still paying rent here I would consider all of this before you move in if you are someone from New York City, etc. this might not be that drastic for you. If you are trying to get away from a noisy complex, this is not the complex for you.. What sucks is that they get to decide if the noise levels are loud or not, not you or the company that comes over and hears all of this shit. ITS BEEN AWFUL! I've complained multiple times. It doesn't matter. UPDATE: I moved out and a week prior I tried contacting the leasing office. No one called me back. No one answered until I reached out to them with a blocked number, and then was rerouted to manager of bentree. She contacted me a day after my move out date ( after me begging and calling ) and are charging me for a cleaning fee ( I paid to have cleaners over 200$ ) and wanted to get in contact with someone so that they can review the apartment for me to get my full deposit back and they made sure to not contact me or return my calls I had to beg and beg to have someone give me a call back and the manager who I've had problems with my entire time living in that community decides that the apartment is not clean I asked for pictures she said her partner took pictures of the place not being clean, but I asked for them to compare them to my pictures of my place being clean, and she did not respond back to me. ( the cleaning service asked for those pictures because they told me they would give me a refund and she won't even at minimum do that, send pics if it's true). I feel ripped off, and taken advantage of. They can pretty much do and treat you anyway. That manager at that location is unprofessional and not easy to go to with any issues. I wouldn't let this place take your money they do not care especially the manager AFRAH OMAR ! It is nothing more than just a job for her. She does not care how you sleep at night. She does not care if you have degrading issues and for her to contact me after my move out and gets to decide that my place wasn't clean with zero proof. Trying to contact them just for them to make sure my apartment was up the standards after the cleaning was not easy and again, they contacted me after that move out date and it just feels like I was robbed. I've lived in other communities where they go about it professionally. That manager is horrible. What apartment complex contacts you after your move out date instead of before when you've reached out to them? I don't understand how she even got that job and it's really sad for the community there. I am not the only complaint regarding her. There are other neighbors who have had their fair issues that I've spoken to. I would just beware of living here save your money and move somewhere where the people actually want to do their jobs.

I wanted to switch my unit to same size onther unit because of Mold, water leakage under floor, high hamidity and hamidity smell in my unit.The management team is not able to fix this problem, because they are careless ,unprofessional every day they defruad the residents.Always my children have complain from headach, sore throat and body pain.I bought a dehumidifier to control hamidity it did not work properly because there is water leakage under floor.The Leasing Office offered me extra money or my new income. meanwhile I'm living here for 4 years I don't have late payments or no paynalty.They don't look at my 4 years record. Just they know how to take money from residents' packets. We do not feel safe and happy here, so the best judge is very human's own conscience !

Current resident here, I wouldn't walk I would run away from This place. Regrets on moving in. Advertising no smoking, everyone smokes and it seeps through the air ducts. Wanna park? $60-$120 got a parking space that's damn near a 8 minutes walk! Want friends over? Well people take up and hog guest parking for weeks, not to mention venders park in your spot for hours and you can't get a hold of anyone. They say you can wash your car, oh that's great! NOPE! Spots are hogged by people stealing spots, okay fine surely you can fill a bucket up with water? NOPE handles are all broken nice. Basically only nice thing is the semi renovated apartments that you pay a premium for. Counting the days for this year to up

This is absolutely the worst apartment complex I have ever dealt with my entire life. My son was staying there and had to leave Virginia and move back to Florida because he lost his job due to Covid. They want to charge him $7200 to break his lease. $3600 for the loss of the rent and another $3100 because he did not give them a 90 day written notice. How could he do that if he lost his job and couldn't afford to live there?!?! We are willing to pay the $3600 but I refuse to pay the $3100. But what drives me crazy is when he was living there. The apartment manager (who is horrible and impossible to get ahold of) and complex did not help him out even a little bit on his rent when the upstair unit had a water leak that leaked thru his ceiling causing his cloths to get all wet. All they did was went into his unit and taped plastic bags on his ceilings that stayed up there for a couple weeks!!!! But I guess that not the apartment complex's fault?!?! I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND not renting unit here!!!!!!!!

Like majority of what other residents have said prior, Bent Tree apartments is EXTREMELY money hungry, uncommunicative, and lack so much professionalism that we all are ready to LEAVE ASAP. My family and I have only been here for 3 months ... if you are late on rent once 11:58 hit they charge you 100 dollars (not including all the extra fees they charge you )then if your late not even a month on rent they try to evict you ... mind you the only thing they do is email you calling, emailing , texting them is straight pointless no matter what the situation is .. I could say so much more but the other reviews tell it all ! PLEASE DO NOT MOVE HERE (they are nice and very communicative until you move in it's a freaking trap ) forget the 1 star it's a 0 out of 5. Tell your family and friends to tell their family and friends NOT TO MOVE HERE ITS NOT WORTH THE BULL.

I WOULD GIVE THIS 0 STARS...Here I am again with another issue this company needs to fix. I drove around 20-25 MINUTES looking for a parking spot in my own community THAT I PAY $15 dollars for EVERY MONTH. For a company that charges this much and doesn't have enough parking spaces to accommodate people getting home late is RIDICULOUS. I had to park in Little Rocky Run and walk 10 minutes just to get home.... Instead of building a stupid fcking dog park why don't you build more parking spaces? I saw at least 10 reserved parking spaces that were empty.... instead of up charging residents for premium parking spots why can't this cheap ass company provide more parking?! Im 100% positive Im not the only one with this issue. I can't wait move out and never step foot in this complex again!!!!

They are not taking responsible about residents living in their properties. Anything happens to your unit forget about talking to them. Call insurance and ready to hear the insurance is not covering any damages. Assistant manager, Bee? or Vee? girl with a curly hair, she is worst ever I dealt for customer service. I have no idea how she climbed up to be an assistant manager. Worst beyond worst to talk to. Oh~~ good luck finding a parking spot after 10pm even with paid parking permit.

THEFT ALERT!! I frequently visit Bent Tree Apartments to see my boyfriend, but a recent incident has left me feeling extremely unsafe. His bike was stolen from his balcony, and we're unsure if it happened while someone was home. This experience has been scary! and it raises serious security concerns. Waiting to see what management will respond to this situation. This incident has deeply shaken our sense of security, as we are uncertain whether it occurred while someone was home or if the thief gained access to the balcony unnoticed. The fact that such a theft could occur within the premises raises serious concerns about the apartment's safety measures.

So unprofessional people/staffs, worst after management changed, they are not sure about what they are doing, if you need to meet the staffs regarding anything makeup your mind to separate couple of hours for even a small stuff, experienced a lot of times. Weird staffs, really upset.

These apartments are made from hopes and dreams. I had a huge gust off wind come through my window and its closed. Build quality of these apartments are terrible and rent keeps going up for some reason; its not like the apartments are getting an upgrade. Its 4 in the morning....do you know how mad you gotta be to wake up from a gust of wind at 4 in the morning and write a review.

The Property manager Sonia in the leasing office is absolute unprofessional, she never answered any of my calls nor emails, even lived there for three years. They have the worst costumer services, rude all the time, they don't have any respect for residents. Please stay away from this nasty community, parking and cleanliness is the biggest issue of this community plus worst management.

A great place to live if you have no friends, no car, don't get any mail and don't mind when everything breaks. If you have no friends, you won't have to be concerned that there is very limited guest parking. If you're thinking it's cool because your friends exclusively travel by Uber/Lyft make sure they also aren't smokers, because the community is going "smoke free" including parking lots, your balcony, etc. The wait time to go grab whatever you had prime shipped to you is at least 45 minutes. If you go to the store to buy stuff like some commoner and God forbid, have an actual question you want answered - just forget it. You'll get a more efficient answer from a Magic 8 Ball. You could try calling or emailing, but I have yet to get responses that way. I'm going to try a carrier pigeon next. I will say the maintenance staff has a couple cool dudes working for them. Of course, I see them the most has something is always broken.

This Place is straight up garbge they charge you $50 for a little package.

Rude staff, hidden fees. Maintenance is slow to respond OR shows up sporadically requesting that you vacate your apartment for the day.

BEWARE BEWARE BEWARE BEWARE! My family and I have lived here for many years. The complex was sold to people that don't know what they are doing. They are rude and disrespectful. I have put in my complaints. still Nothing they want you to email your complaints but nothing done in a timely matter. I have been complaining about my outlets for months nothing. there is only four that works in the apartment. (NOTHING) The parking is HORRIFIC if you come home after 6 good luck in finding parking. The only way you have parking near your house is if you paid for it. You can't go out on weekends because if you come back late you have to park at the CVS and walk back. You pay for your trash to be picked up and the trash service that they use leaves trash in the breeze way and it is not picked up. You have to use disinfectant for the equipment in the gym its always dirty and dusty. They have TV's but they don't work the equipment is old the tread mill skips.It's extremely hot the air is never on. No fans,you have to make sure you bring lots of water. I went the other night to the gym and I could not get in they most have changed the system, and didn't notify anyone. The RENT and FEES that they attach is astronomical!!! My friend lives in Woodway apartments and she doesn't have any problems her place is larger and she pays less for rent she said their staff is great. My lease will be up in November, I will be put in my notice OCTOBER 1st. I would rate the complex with new management -0. If I listed everything I would be here all day. BEWARW ITS NOT WORTH THE STRESS!!!!!!!!!!!!

I went into the property to apply for an apartment. The complex requires $50 application fee and an upfront $500 holding fee. After learning this, I alerted the office staff that I no longer wanted to continue the application process because I was not prepared (that day) to pay $500. I was told my quote would still be available for another day and I could apply again. I go home and discovered that I was charged $50 despite me saying I did not have the upfront $500. The application process is two parts, application fee and holding fee. When I told their staff I did not have enough to complete the two step application process --- WHY WAS I CHARGED $50. I emailed the office. No response. I had to go back to the property for an explanation. If I am charged $50, then did you run a background check? I was told they don't know if I was approved or not and would need to check with corporate. WHY WAS I CHARGED IF STAFF IS NOT SURE IF A VERIFICATION EVEN TOOK PLACE? *******DO NOT APPLY FOT THESE APARTMENTS UNLESS YOU KNOW FOR SURE YOU CAN PAY $500 UPFRONT. THEY WILL CHARGE YOU $50 AND NOT EVEN PROVIDE YOU DETAILS ON WHETHER OR NOT YOU ARE APPROVED! ******* I called. I emailed. I received no response. It wasn't until I went back (drove an hour from DC) that I got some sort of response. ****IT'S NOT WORTH IT! THE APARTMENTS ARE OLD. LOOK ELSEWHERE!

This apartment community is the worst I moved in to become close to work and the staf was so helpful to move me in. But once I moved in it was a nightmare they don't have parking for the tenant Instead they build only payed parking spaces and there is no street parking I had to beg for devices at my apartment for three months and when I contacted the manager expensing my concerns she was upset about it. The halls are dirty and no one cleans them . The staff is unprofessional and I was getting prank phone calls because I complained and the staff was entering my apartment when I was at work without notice I had a hidden camera I had to move from the constant harassment.

Their leasing office is a joke! They will tell you just all the right things to get you to move in until you do and all of a sudden you're towed because they didn't do their job explaining or giving you the parking pass.. they dont tell you anything really, just take your money & if you need customer service? Be prepared for the shittiest of the attitudes of them all, as if it is so much of us to ask for them to do their jobs. Need something maintenance? you better triple check they did that right & make sure they are actually doing something because I've had to go thru multiple of the guys to make sure they do their job as well. Shout out to fahar, the only maintenance guy that actually cares. Parking? Almost none existing. They've said for months and months we've passed along your concerns lalalala nothing happens and never will under this management. Pay for parking monthly just to park in the visitors section 10 minutes away from ur building! Idk how a complex could be so careless! It only looks appealing... until u actually get in and its like what have i gotten myself into? Had my apt "renovated" before we moved only to have uneven/not leveled floors & left no instructions to any appliances. If you have no other option sure, but this is my true honest experience. DO NOT MOVE IN HERE. You're welcome!Oh & one last thing they don't tell you?The lockers! It's literally pay $50 a yr for the locker room or u literally can't & wont get any packages delivered & when they go missing... again shitty customer service & they act dumb to not do their jobs. Counting the days until i move out of this shitty place.

I believe this property lacks professionalism as the leasing specialist I was emailing with had originally scheduled me for the wrong time. 5 minutes past the time we were supposed to virtually meet for a tour she emailed me with a link. Another 5 minutes passed and I emailed asking when someone would hop on.. she said give it 5 minutes. Finally after waiting 30 minutes past the time of having my virtual tour I gave up. I responded about no one showing up and she said oh did no one get on? ---- obviously not. She said she'll forward feedback to management. If you value your time and work from home and are in between meetings like myself all day, think twice about this property. They have no sense of urgency or professionalism. I hope management can understand that if you're going to offer virtual tours, you should probably make sure your staff can actually show up on time or even show up at all! Really a shame.

I do not recommend this place, it is very dirty, there are many animals.

Its been 2 month since I moved in and my experience here has been horrible. I am getting hit with hidden fees like crazy. --You have to pay for their delivery service to the locker (one time fee) which they still deliver it in front of your door--The gym is being renovated but you have to pay for that service (not even prorated) even when you can't use it.--Electric service pay separately to Virginia Electric however... you get hit with the prorated service for the day you didn't set up an account of $50 one time service fee on top of that $5.25/month service fee for god knows what.Below is some of the charges from the statement (copied and pasted)--Vacant Service Fee 06/04/2019 - 06/11/2019 $50.00--Service Fee Conservice is a service provider contracted to prepare monthly statements and provide conservation resources. $5.25--Acct. Setup This is a one-time fee to setup your Conservice account. $10.00--Energy Conservation Fee 06/04/2019 - 06/06/2019 $2.00 (not even sure what this is and this is monthly or in the future going to be higher)PLUS$15/month per car for parking (not enough parking spaces...good luck)$50 for locker delivery service (they still deliver to door)$14.33 for insurance (if you get it through Bent Tree)PLUSWater Base ChargePest ControlSewerSewer Base (different from Sewer charge)TrashWater (difference from water base charge)I am not saying all the charges are not reasonable however, the hidden fee and one time fees are ridiculous.I currently pay $1500 base rent $30 for 2 cars $14.33 for insurance = $1544.33+electric+all those other fees will run you about $1750 minus the one time fees for everything.BEWARE!!!!

I been leaving here for 2 years and often the new company took over this place is suck I don't recommend it to any one.

Parking is awful. Trying to park past 8 pm is a struggle none the less. The community here doesn't seem to care for any rules set forth by the leasing office. When I first moved in I was told that this was a Smoke free complex, the second I parked the moving truck I see 2 separate groups of people smoking outside my soon to be apartment. Noise complaint are ignored at Bent Tree so if you are naturally a noisy person this is the place for you. I've probably submitted 10 noise complaints and that doesn't do anything. Overall I would recommend not living here.

Terrible services, rude staff, apartments full of Bedbugs!!! The worst apartment complex I have ever been! Never more

The parking space is very limited. You can waiste your money to reserve a spot or waist your time trying to find a spot very far away from your unit, if you can find one. There should be a warning about the limited parking before applying for a lease. On the contrary, I was told by a staff member that there was plenty of parking, but that is not the case. I guess lying is one the selling strategies use by the leasing office.

We have been living in this complex for about 1,5 months. Even though the leasing office rep who was signing us up and worked with us was very responsive and nice, there were so many issues with everything else. There has not been a week when we wouldn't have to go to leasing office or submit the requests for maintenance. Initially, when we came to check the apartment, there were issues with a lot of things (so it wasn't inspected by their staff). We filled out the inspection sheet but still not everything had been fixed until today, even though we brought it up few times. I guess as long as it's not life-threatening, they don't care about your comfort. It is just an old complex poorly maintained. We were happy that we could lock in the rent for more than a year prior to moving in, but now we wish we could move out...

I loved the management when it was ran by Lincoln. It is now ran by Aimco, and I have never encountered more issues at any apartment complex than at Bent Tree. It took over two months to fix our porch when there was a safety concern, and I have a toddler! There was a misunderstanding regarding visitor parking, and my friends car was towed. I spoke with the office staff and asked to speak to the manager. The manager was never put on the phone, and I had to speak with the assistant manager. That woman made me feel like an idiot. Horrible customer service. I have no idea how they will keep residents with management like this. Good luck. I will never renew my lease now that management has changed. Horrible. JUST TO ADD TO THE MESS, I was able to give the name and exact date of the person from their office who gave me incorrect information, but it was MY FAULT since they are not able to verify what was said during the conversation. WHY NOT ASK YOUR EMPLOYEE WHEN THEYRE IN THE OFFICE AGAIN?!?! WORST MANAGEMENT/CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER!!!!!!

Be very wary of the new management company (Aimco). Bent Tree was previously managed by Lincoln Apartments with whom I had a good experience. I lived at Bent Tree for two years and Aimco took over during the last month of my lease. They used a photo of someone else's laundry room to try and prove that I did not clean my apartment (I did. I left it better than I had found it) and claimed a "hair" was left in the medicine cabinet resulting in a cleaning charge. Only after threatening to take them to small claims did they waive the charge. The apartments are good and the community is nice but the new management is to be avoided.

If I could give less than 1 star I would. I am very laid back but I would not recommended this apartment complex to anyone! I moved in a year ago because the rent was low. I quickly found out that there were a number of hidden fees that I was not told about, which made paying my rent difficult. There were little things in the beginning that bugged me. My apartment was blowing cold air when the heat was on. I put in 3 service requests and each time the man who came put my heat up to 98 degrees and said it clearly worked fine. Then, they decided it was time for a new gym and leasing office, which, after 5 months is still not up and running, yet were still paying to have a gym which is not built yet. In April, there was a fie in which a man passed away. I have talked to a number of residents that were in that building and said no alarms went off and people actually drove to the local fire department to tell them what was going on. This was concerning to me so I went back to my apartment and realized my smoke detector was from 2001 and was not working. I also had no sprinklers in my apartment and no pull fire alarms in the hallways of my building. I went to Sonia the manager about this. She told me it wasn't that big of a deal and I was overreacting. She informed me that the building is up to code because they are following the code of the year my building was built which was in the 1980's. I asked to get out of my lease and she told me no because although I lived across the street from the big fire it was not my building, therefore I had to wait it out. I then talked to Aimco who also told me there was nothing they could do. I had Sonia and a representative from Aimco come to show me where my pull fire alarms were. I was informed that I had to go down 3 flights of stairs and to the building next door and pull their alarm. Which to me sounded ridiculous! But, no one seemed concerned, only me. In August there was a fire in my building. The alarm was pulled but because my specific "breezeway" did not have a pull fire alarm I had NO IDEA there was a fie until I went to take my dog out and saw 4 fire trucks outside my building, saw the fire hoses, and heard the alarms. Just a heads up, you need to figure out a way to be safe for yourselves if you are living there. You will get ZERO help from anyone in the management. Luckily, I have moved to a much better and much safer apartment that is NOT owned by Aimco and who actually care about their residents.

if I could have less than a star I will give it this horrible apartment complex. Since Lincoln property sold to the new owners this has become so horrible and unsafe place I will not recommend it to anyone. Now a lot of drunk people live in the complex and they don't respect the piece of the other tenants They stay after 1 in the morning drinking in the balconiess and playing music very laugh and some of us have to work early in the morning and we need to rest They also are leaving the dog without leash and one of the dog bite my brother I am glad it was not a child I can't imagine the damage that he could to a child. The new staff in the offices not doing anything about those incidents or to solve the problems. We send them an email because they have been doing some construction work in the complex and they scratch our new car that we get from the dealer not too long ago GUESS WHAT THEY HAVE NOT ANSWER TO THE EMAIL NOT EVEN TO BE RESPECTFUL. Another issue in the complex is that now if you came after 9 pm you will not find a parking space. You have to go and park far away in the street IMAGEN IF YOU ARE A WOMEN AND YOU GET OFF FROM WORK AT 11PM AND YOU HAVE TO WALK IN THE STREET BY YOURSELF SOMETHING DANGER CAN HAPPEN TO YOU. Also the personal in the leasing office are very slow and rude if you can to pick a package you have to way a lot of time and they always make a face to give you the package its like if you are living in the complex free and they are not getting pay from the rent that you are paying. I live here for more than 3 years when LINCOLN PROPERTY HAVE THE COMPLEX AND I DID NOT COMPLAINT. I WAS VERY HAPPY TO BE PART OF THIS COMMUNITY. NOW I just want my lease to finish and move from this very unsafe apartment complex.

Been a Resident for almost 3 years, 1) Black Mold, in living room and Bathroom 2) Never a place to park after 7 pm 3) No one will respond to any requests or issues 4) This month I have had my washer broken twice, same issue, have done 5 maintenance requests have only been dealt with once 5) Was charged for a Dog for a whole year after they made me kick out my dog, asked for a refund for the charges, never got back to me, been over 3 months and have called/emailed multiple times 6) Constant Vehicle Break Ins 7) Overall management and leasing office have incredibly poor communication 8) Amenities are very cheap, washer, dryer, sink have broken in the double digits this year a lone let a lone previous

I cannot wait until my lease ends and I can move out of this dump. I would have given this place about a 3.5/5 under the old management. Under the new management though, even 1 star is too much. They changed the visitor parking policy so that you basically cannot have a guest stay more than 3 days a week, and if the visitor parking fills up, then sorry, guess your guest can't stay. There were not issues with parking before. Worst case scenario is you had to walk a little farther to get to your apartment. It's ridiculous. There also has been a big increase in the amount of trash I have seen around the apartment complex since the new management took over. It's not just trash either, but dog waste as well. When I brought this up to management, they basically ignored me. I had to email them at least 3 over the course of a few days before they finally had someone clean the trash up. While on the topic of being ignored, chances are you will have to email management multiple times before they even respond. So yeah, don't move here.

Updating this review to give a bit more transparent information:-there have been a couple nights where there have been 0 parking spaces in the entire apartment complex. I had to park in a fire lane, and emailed to say I was parking in a fire lane and never heard back. Reminder that you pay $15/car per month just for basic parking.-constant construction is going on. We have had people doing some construction on our deck without any type of notice. Just this morning I heard some noises outside and found someone on the deck with a ladder. Again - didn't receive any type of notice or time frame for this to be completed, and my screen door curtains were not closed.-our door will not completely shut to them point of it jamming nearly everytime we try to close it. If you're moving in, I recommend buying something to seal the door and also have something for under the door to stop air from coming in. We can see right through our door currently. We also still have water damage on our ceiling that we were told would be fixed back in July.- I have really tried to be patient and understanding, but I regret moving here every day. No one has reached out to me since our move in to discuss these concerns. I very strongly advise you to look elsewhere. The cost seems cheap, but our rent has gone up a lot more than we were initially told, and the itemized statements are extremely hard to understand/disorganized. I really hope something changes very soon. Again - I'm not one to take the time to write bad reviews, but this living situation is pretty bad to say the least. I have been a resident at Bent Tree Apartments for a little over 2 months. Pros: -convenient location to 28, 66, etc. -maintenance team rocks, and is very friendly and efficient-dog park for dog lovers and owners-pretty neighborhood with lots of trees and paths for walki Cons:-hidden fees everywhere. Our base rent for a 2Br/2B is under $1,552, but with water, trash, sewage, parking, etc it equates to ~$1,670. This doesn't even include the $300 admin fee we paid for a gym that isn't open, the $50 locker fee for packages that are still delivered right in front of my apartment, $50 charge of each pet per month, $3 for pest control when there is a big bug problem, and my separate bills for internet and electric. On top of that late fees are charged the day after you miss rent and they charge $100. There is NO grace period whatsoever (in the lease agreement)-floors are so uneven we can't even put things on our shelf without things rolling off. Water damage on ceiling hasn't been fixed, and we have reached out multiple times. -super loud environment. We are located right next to a major road which factors into noise, but additionally the walls are so thin you can hear your neighbors very easily - even them turning on the shower -little to no visitor parking, especially after 7pm. They provide about 15 spots total for visitor parking for the entire community, so if you plan on having guests over, they likely won't be able to park there unless they get there very early in the day. -has no communication about lease or move in info until the day before I moved in. Received the finalized lease document less than 48 hours before move in. I hate writing bad reviews, especially because my boyfriend and I were so excited to live here. We will not be renewing our lease and we urge anyone to read this and think carefully before renting. Hopefully things change for future renters because it really could be a nice place to live.

1.they startiing less very quickly and have a lot of promise but 90% of this promises will not be true. 2.they have alot of fees on the monthly rent and even don't have explanation for that. 3. parking spots is the biggest problem i have ever seen. when start the less they told us you can have up to 4 spots for 4 car but after a month they gave us just two. and now we park two of out car outside of the bentree apartment.

Not enough parking spaces even when you pay your $15 a month. Across my apt they just take a spot and put reserved. Really!!!!!!! Which you can get if you want to pay $40 a month.

I recently had the unfortunate experience of living at Bent Tree, and I must say that it was an absolute nightmare. I cannot stress enough how much I would advise against signing a lease with this establishment. First and foremost, cars in the community have been being broken into on a regular basis. The lack of adequate security measures is evident, leaving residents feeling unsafe and vulnerable. It is deeply concerning that the management has not taken sufficient action to address this ongoing problem. Furthermore, the removal of community amenities, such as the car wash area, only added to the disappointment. These amenities were likely key selling points for many prospective tenants, and their removal without any alternative was a significant letdown. It reflects poorly on the management's commitment to providing a comfortable living environment. In addition, assigned parking spots were a complete mess. They were unorganized and often located far away from residents' actual apartment units. This inconvenience alone would be frustrating, but coupled with the lack of attention to detail, it became clear that the management prioritized revenue over resident satisfaction. Charging fees for package delivery is an unnecessary and unreasonable practice that showcases their profit-driven approach. The maintenance staff is equally disappointing. They take an exorbitant amount of time to address maintenance requests, and even then, the quality of their work was subpar. It was disheartening to witness them casually strolling around on golf carts, seemingly uninterested in their responsibilities. Visitor parking is also an absolute nightmare. If you have more than two cars registered, you were forced to park in the visitor parking area, despite paying a parking fee. This resulted in a severe shortage of parking spaces for actual visitors. Finding parking after 12 pm is nearly impossible, leaving residents and their guests frustrated and inconvenienced. In conclusion, Bent Tree Apartments is without a doubt the worst complex I have ever had the misfortune of residing in. The constant break-ins, removal of amenities, disorganized parking system, excessive fees, and careless attitude of the management and maintenance staff all contribute to an unacceptable living experience. I strongly advise anyone considering these apartments to explore other options. Save yourself the headache and find a community that values its residents' well-being and satisfaction.

Parking is still nightmare. They have these "reserved spots" right in front of each building that you can pay for but no one pays for them so they're always open and when I'm circling the complex at night trying to find parking those are the only ones open but I can't park in them or I'll get towed. Just do yourself a favor and go elsewhere unless you want a headache. They're trying to re do the siding and paint the brick of all the building right now while we're still waiting for them to open the renovated gym and clubhouse and while we're waiting for them to repair the burned building.There was a multi unit fire over 4 months ago but I still have to drive by a black burned building surrounded by construction equipment when nothing has changed and doesn't like they've rebuilt any part of the building. They have fences taking up a bunch of parking near that building too which could be used because if you get home after 8 pm good luck finding parking. Last night I had to walk across the entire complex carrying my 2 year old who was asleep because I got home around 11 pm. I work late and I work 45 hours a week and am a mom so to spend 30-45 minutes looking for parking and then carry my sleeping child across the complex is ridiculous and management DOESNT care. My last Yelp review the "business owner" said someone reached out but surprise surprise, no one did. My lease was almost up and I was looking to transfer so I called the leasing office and spoke to a gentleman about what unit and he said he would get it approved by his boss and call me back. Well after a month of waiting I said forget it I don't want to pack anymore and no one called back. So I'm on the resident website and it says my upcoming auto payment was a few hundred more than usual so I'm like wtf, I walk to the leasing trailer and speak to someone and she was like yeah you're moving in the 18th of next month that why your rent went up. So apparently I was scheduled to move and no one told me?! The gentleman never called me back about transferring but put in the transfer.. I never signed any new lease or anything and no one spoke to me. The guy over heard me and was like "oh yeah that was me I knew I should've called you back." The woman said she would fix it and contact me. She contacted me a few days later and apologized it took a few days because hey had already LEASED MY APARTMENT TO SOMEONE ELSE. They leased the apartment I was living in to someone else without contacting me and having me sign transfer papers. I really feel bad for those people because they probably had to find something else and just go through a headache. Hopefully they went to another complex! I will he emailing Aimco everyday until they fix this parking issue because I should not have to waste 30 minutes and my gas just to park at my own home. Seriously if you are still reading this please just go to another complex unless you like wasting your time finding parking or getting hit with hidden fees and looking at construction equipment in front of every building. UPDATE: parking still SUCKS and no one wants to pay for reserved when they already charge us $15 per car.. the tennis court still doesn't have a net. The trash compactor and trash bins are ALWAYS full but if I leave my trash outside my door for ONE night the neighbors bitch. I'm sorry that I have a two year old and I'm on bed rest so I don't always get around to taking it in 10 minutes, but yet everyone uses their balcony as storage which they say isn't allowed and people leave bikes and scooters stored outside their door for weeks and they block the walk way. This complex is horrible so when you see why it's rated so low please take your money elsewhere even if it's a little more costly because no one in management gives a crap about residents. All they want is their money. They also sent notice about people not being allowed to hang things on their balcony but I see residents that have drapes and lights hanging around their balcony. AIMCO doesn't know what the hell theyre doing and I cannot WAIT to leave this sh*t hole. Also that guy who responds to complaints saying he'll contact you... he never does I've never heard from him he's probably up in a corporate office.

I will be writing series of reviews regarding bent tree apartment. we lived for total of 3 years in 2 different units. On the 2nd unit, we lived for less than 24 month and we were charged for 30+ months worth of carpet damge, appx $17 per month based on their calculation. Staff/manager was very reluctant to explain/discuss the matter but to present you with "INVOICE/BILL". We were present on the final walk through and inspecton day and no such claim was mentioned. Existing carpet when our rent started was NOT new so it probably was in a condition to replace from normal wear and tear. I didn't have to pay for the carpet on the previous unit that we lived in, but had to pay for the 2nd one regardless. I BELIEVE MANAGEMENT HAS BEEN CHANGED SINCE THEN. As those of you who read not just my review but others below, you can conclude that last tenant who stay in the unit will have to pay for the carpet REGARDLESS. All apartments and rental units have pros and cons. it just really sucks when they get you at the end just because you are leaving. Hope this review helps some of you. I will write more later. Thanks for reading.

The new management is worst ever I experienced. There is not enough maintenance staff. Any emergency maintenance, we have to wait for 3-7 days. They don't pick up the phone from tenants and also do not reply the phone. Office staff do not keep the record properly too. Last month, they misplaced the check (rent) and sent another letter with late fee. When we went there and asked about the situation, they said, "you gave me the check but I did not accept, so you have to pay rent but we could discount the late fee." What the reason, they did not accept that specific check and discount the late fee? But accepted all other checks. There is no CCTV camera and receipt for proof. I highly recommend them to set up CCTV camera. On 05/08/2018, there was baby shower at my apartment, I asked the visitor parking for my relatives but they denied to provide visitor parking, so my guest unable to participate in baby shower. Office manager (Sonia Anzar) was so rude and treated me as animal (pet) like animal does not have friends and relatives.

Previous management company did the parking lot surfaces recently it's just been only 1~2 yrs. I do not understand. This is very inconvenient since there are not many parking space. It's even worse making separate visitor parking spaces also payed premium parking spaces in front of the building. Everything is MONEY!! The new policy is very inconvenient. They should restore the original parking policies. They need to upgrade the inside of the building not outside. It's getting dirty, not clean the stairs at all. I really don't appreciate how they managing this community. It's getting worser and worser I've living here almost 4 yrs. Manage people are not nice whoever working in the office. Even maintain people don't clean after working in my apartment. They even opened window and left. The trashes were sitting there for couple days. I don't recommend this place. I'll move out when my lease ends.

Bent tree managements is the worst! I am glad I moved out of this horrible place! They overcharged for everything! They could care less about listening to the renters and doing what's is fair. I was charged $75 for blinders I requested to have replaced a while ago. They didn't do their job and then I was charged after move out? Apartments are old! I had horrible allergies while living here. Thin walls and divisiones across apartments I could always hear the neighbors from upstairs! They always charge a 125 cleaning fee after move out. Even thou they say is optional! Do your self and find something better than this old apartments being managed by an abusive company like Aimco!

Management is argumentative, and lies so you can lease with them. People in the office is rude for the most part. Gym really old, same for several years it hasn't been updated in years. The buildings needs maintenance, paint as well as the stairs, although they recently "replaced them" it hasn't been painted. Bugs every where, trash, spiderwebs in every corner, they clean probably once a year and you have to call them requesting to PLEASE clean the breezeway. Dogpark is better and bigger than children's playground. No parking space even though you have to pay per vehicle monthly, if you are lucky enough to find a spot you will be walking at least two blocks from your building. Management loves dogs so complaining about a loud and noisy dog or pee in he stairs or poop in the side walks is NOT an option. Hide fees so if you decide to move make sure you READ carefully your lease and make sure everything is in writing otherwise you can lose. A lot of maintenance needs to be done in every single unit but new management is prioritizing dogparks, asphalt, sidewalks, lease office and honestly not sure what else because you don't see them and whatever it is you definitely won't take advantage of it. Try to find another place if you can. You will be better and happier if you are not living in Bent Tree specially with new management, new fees and new stuff. But the way pictures online are definitely NOT how Bent Tree really looks. Make sure they show you the apartment and building where you are planning to move before you sign the lease. I was unable to upload the pictures to show but unfortunately it was an option.

if your looking for a place where nobody knows whats going on or whats happening this is the place for you. you need a question answered? that will never happen. you want to move parking spots? its going to be like pulling teeth. please spend extra money and go somewhere else between ALL THE HIDDEN FEES and broken amenities ITS NOT WORTH IT!!!

You're done being treated like "family" as soon as you sign your lease. The leasing office is severely understaffed, they never answer their phones when you call, and when they do they hang up on you. My partner slid on a water heater cover and fell in when it was raining. We told management, they did nothing but ask if he was fine! What if it were a kid? Worst attitudes ever from leasing agents, as if your problems are your own fault. QUICK to bill you for leaving anything outside your front door. Take your money ANYWHERE else. This is their job, they don't care that it affects your livelihood. You pay for parking, but they will tow you no matter what! But once they tow you the leasing office cannot help you, even though you had your paid parking pass on the top right of your windshield. Sounds great right? Their package delivery system is a joke. You pay $50 annually for a locker system, and they don't even notify you when your package was delivered. You have to go into the LuxerOne app and talk to their customer service. Leasing office will tell you there's nothing they can do. I had my package stolen recently, the leasing office asked if I had called the police already (sounded like sarcasm). It was a $4 package, I don't need the police, I need the protection and surveillance I was promised when I bought a locker space. Truly counting down the days until I leave this disgusting establishment. The manager's name is Sonia, and she is far from a decent manager. The property manager's name is Andrea, and she's even worse. Need a maintenance request? By your third submission, they should be on the way. Maintenance men are no issue, in fact very thorough and quick, perhaps the nicest thing about this place. Leasing office is truly ran by grown women who act like high-schoolers. God forbid you're passionate and upset about your problem, they'll pretend they never received your voicemail. But once you go into the leasing office physically they act like that had never happened. AVOID this community like the plague. I'm counting down the days until I get to leave this horrible place.

Overpriced as hell for its quality. Floors are uneven. Charging ports are cheap and loose and will pop out so bugs can just crawl in through the hole. 1600 for a one bedroom. Horrible sewage system. Do not rent here.

Overall: not great, poorly managed, fire hazard The community is in a convenient location in Centreville close to a lot of restaurants and not too far from the metro. The neighborhood is seemingly safe, quiet and always looks nice with good landscaping. Since they are doing renovations, most amenities have been closed (gym and business center). The new package lockers are very convenient though. Unfortunately valet trash pickup has been discontinued and the on site dumpsters are always overflowing. Also parking is hectic in the evening and for guests (they are quick to tow!). The apartments themselves are nice enough but nothing special. They do have a lot of different floor plan options. Unfortunately you can easily hear outside noises and they are not well insulated. A big red flag is that there are no sprinklers in the units! I've called Bent Tree home for a few years but am ready to move on and upgrade. Update: There was recently a major fire here resulting in 13 units being uninhabitable and 1 death. The cause has not yet been determined/announced. Not all smoke detectors in the units were working, there are no sprinklers, and there is not a fire alarm to pull in every building. The management company has stated that they have no plans to update for fire safety. I no longer feel safe living here. Look into this before moving here!

Since the change in ownership, the leasing office is slower than the previous leasing office staff. Not that that either were responsive, but they have no idea how to finalize a lease or check that you have renters insurance correctly. Then they want to put the responsibility onto the people renting and charge them an additional $300 per month because they can't update their systems correctly. Then they waste your time by making you verify your renters insurance by having your insurance company call them directly confirming that you have renters insurance, but still can't update their systems. They don't return your calls or emails so the only way to get something done is by waiting in their office for 30-60 min only to hear them tell you they are sorry but need something else. Professionalism is not a word in their dictionary. Update: Been a while, not much has changed since. Appliances will not be replaced if they "run". I wash dishes by hand because they refuse to replace my washing machine because it "runs" and they have the nerve to tell me I need to rinse dishes before putting them in. You think I don't know that . I put dishes that are completely clean in, wash it, and it comes out dirty. Can't wait to move out in 4 months. PS. Good luck having guests over with their small a** visitor parking. Guests will probably get towed parking in other spots, unless you want to park at Spa World and walk over Update 2: Washing machine still leaks and doesn't clean properly. Every time I call the office they just send a "maintenance" person to run the washer and leave. Good luck with any water damage, I will not be held liable for it.

!!!DO NOT GET ROPED INTO SIGNING A LEASE AT THIS APARTMENT COMPLEX!!! I have lived in a Bent Tree for the past 4 year and cannot WAIT to move out of here. Since changing management companies, the quality of service and living has sharply declined. For starters -- they charge you to store your incoming mail. They make it mandatory to use their package storage facility and if you can not pick up your mail within a week, they ship it back to the sender. I'm a frail girl: Part of the reason I opt for shipping is so that my 50 lbs packages arrive AT MY DOORSTEP. Not 1000 ft away at the leasing office. It's ~impossible~ to find a parking spot once the sun goes down. Since the implementation of their new parking policies, be prepared to walk to the nearest shopping center about 10-15 min away just to secure a spot for your vehicle. There was a fire here just weeks ago that ended with someone dying. This required management to send out a bunch of inspection notices to make sure all the fire alarms were in working order... both times, not a single maintenance crew member stopped by to survey our equipment. Managers are rude and it's next to impossible to get in touch with anyone via phone. I can not exclaim how glad I am my lease is ending, y'all! If you value your living experience, DO NOT MOVE HERE. PSA TO ALL CURRENT UNHAPPY RESIDENTS: I know there's plenty of unhappy residents scrolling through the reviews right now.... Here's a word of advice: Once you get the 60 Day Notice reminder, immediately submit it. I made the mistake of waiting until I secured another property and now I'm stuck paying for an additional 47 days in rent. Although this is near the bottom of my list of complaints, it will leave an incredibly bad taste in your mouth. I'm order to avoid this predicament, learn from my mistake and PUT THAT NOTICE IN! Lol!

They go into your apartments without letting you know, they leave important information out all the time at the time of signing the lease. The leasing agents simply do not do their job, and when they do it's almost as if it's a bother. This complex is not worth the money it charges. There's huge rodents running around the complex, the dog park doors have never worked in the 22 months i lived there, neither did the dog pet spa. The water fountain in the dog park doesn't work. There's been a pot hole by the pool where we walk for months now & they have put a cone over it for just as long & they keep ignoring it as it continues to get worse. For the amount you pay the maintenance just isn't there & they are careless about it. There's also no parking anytime after 7-8pm unless you park 5-10 minutes away from your apartment which is ridiculous because you have to pay $15 extra on top of the rent (which includes random fees that constantly change with no explanation) for parking. You're just paying for the location & because it looks pretty decent.

Currently live here now, a new company took over and the staff are rude, liars, and do not care about their residents. Always noisy, never any parking. They added a new policy about parking but still is stupid and useless because they only want your money, so they get you to update to "better parking". Added more charges to our rent. Called them about some issues and they said they'd get back to us, never did. Also said they left messages and I don't have any from them. If I can get voicemail from automated machines, pretty sure I would've gotten their messages. PLEASE SPARE YOURSELVES FROM LIVING AT A TERRIBLE PLACE.

I kept holding back on putting in a review for Bent Tree Apartments in Centreville, VA but now I have no choice. I had to move out in less than a month. Never mind the parking hassles, especially coming home after 7pm with bags of groceries and a Baby to feed and no parking available where I have to drive to the HMart plaza to park and walk back on numerous occasions and also pay a monthly parking fee, who charges parking for a place they call your home?, and never mind the exorbitant amount of monthly fees and service charges that are added onto the rent where you may as well go to a nicer more expensive place where you are going to end up paying the same amount, but the straw that broke this camels back was when the two leasing agents absolutely promised me they would not charge me for cleaning expenses when I moved out. This was their word of honor and of course I did get charged. My email response was sent to the property manager and she would not honor and uphold their promise. A real dishonest loser. Dishonesty is something I can't take especially when it comes to monetary concerns. They can keep their cleaning expense but I am going to keep this review up for a long time. Think multiple times before moving here. The reviews do not lie about this place.

you will get horrible service and maintenance, everything in apartment is old so like your AC may not work heat may not work, they will avoid all cost to fix it and will take several months to service and fix it if your lucky. The customer service in the front office is nice but on weekends only have one person in the office so you will be waiting in a line about an hour min. Word of advice, DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS CRAP HOLE, YOUR BETTER OFF PAYING A BIT MORE AND GOING SOMEWHERE ELSE BELIEVE ME. They don't really follow up, logistics are very unorganized,

old, very unsafe structure. noise sounds everywhere(constructions), rude staffs... they will not gonna fix your broken window and they will say "turn on the AC/heater."

Rude staff, bed bugs, AC made in 1986. Old apartments and dirty area full of insect.

I would rather sleep in the street with the homeless than leave in this property.... The worst management ever... you can hear your neighbors what they are doing through the walls... that's how bad these apartments are

The parking is horrible! They first charge for it, then you have only a specific spot to park in, you can't even choose. It's always far away from where I live and on top of that the maintenance teams keep parking their trucks in multiple spots and I can't even go inside until I find one and get them to move.

The worst place to rent from!! You will never find parking after 9:30pm-10pm!!! On top of that my car got towed last night and I had to pay $160 to get it back today! The management run by this apartment sucks and they do not care! I highly advise the people to find somewhere else to rent. I can not wait for my lease to end in a couple of months!!!

I am a current costumer for Bent Tree apartment, my ac hasn't been working for the last 2 weeks, I was told ac part had to be special order so I'll be 4 weeks without ac, just go somewhere else to rent
